    Has anyone been to the South of Lake Garda?

    Hi all I'm staying in Montichiari (about 8 miles SW of Lake Garda) in May with family. I won't get much time to myself, so would anyone be able to recommend somewhere I could go for half a day? I haven't got any specific species to hunt for, but would like to see birds that I wouldn't normally...

    Frodsham Marshes

    Thanks for the help 🤗 I used something similar but ended up on a path that was so overgrown it disappeared. I’ll give it another go using the link and grid references you posted 👍🏻

    Frodsham Marshes

    Hi everyone. Does anyone know how to access Frodsham Marshes? I've tried twice and, although I had nice walks, I didn't get near the tanks where the birds are. I suspect I could park where The Danny is and walk through the barrier, but I don't know if that's right, whether I can park there or...

    Spike Island Widnes Cheshire coast

    These were in a pond near where the Mersey comes in from the sea. They were with drake mallards but didn’t look anything like female mallards. They were peach(?) in colour. There are supposed to be ruddy shelducks around there but these didn’t seem to fit for them.

    Hybrid Mallards?

    Hybrid Mallards?

    Hi. I saw these two in separate ponds in Altrincham, Cheshire. Both were with mallards. Are they hybrids or is the second one an escapee perhaps? Thanks in advance 👍🏻😀

    Danube Delta Tours March/April

    Thanks opisska! :t: So, are there regular ferries to Mila 23 for example? I like to explore, so 'turning up and seeing' sounds like the best option. I prefer being on a boat with a group though, so I'll look out for one of those.

    Danube Delta Tours March/April

    SAFCA Delta Tours have said they have private tours earlier in the year. I can ring them to see if there are any spaces. I'm still a bit worried I'll be left high and dry, so I'll keep looking for something more solid. :egghead:

    Danube Delta Tours March/April

    Hi everyone I’ve booked a holiday near Tulcea for March 30th to April 3rd. What I didn’t realise is that the boat tours don’t get started until May. |8.| Does anyone know if it’s possible to go on a boat tour round the delta in the spring, at a reasonable price? Thanks for any help :t: Andy
